 but the median scales at times inclined to be asymmetrical. 

 Cells small. Ungues in $ simple and equal. 



The genus evidently lies near Dendromyia^ but Mr. Theobald 

 says it cannot be included under that genus, the large bunch of 

 bristles on the meson otum being too marked a characteristic and 

 I therefore give it a place by itself." 



The genus now contains the following species : —
